Verner Pantons 60´s lamp Moon is now relaunched. The Moon pendant is one of Verner Panton's earliest luminaires. It consists of ten ring-shaped aluminium blades positioned in such a way that they can move. The lamp justifiably gets its name from its shape and the quality of light coming from it.
The lamp consists of a large numbers of ring-shaped, discs which are suspended around the centrally located bulb. The fan-shaped discs hide the bulb and at the same time serve as reflectors, through which a soft light is spread throughout the room.
Verner Panton was and inspirational and colourful personality. A unique person with a special sense of colours, shapes, light function and room. Over the course of his career Panton (1926-1998) introduced a series of modern lamps with personalities unlike any of his Scandinavian contemporaries.
With a remarkable faith in the unlimited possibilities of the form, he worked successfully to create a new set of theories about how lighting should work and how it should influence its surrounding.
